Transformers references in other media

Is that this show?

If so, which episode?

... my brother was part of the set design and asked to use my figures. Though I was only allowed to use Hasbro figures, no Takara Tomy or 3P.

Why was the display restricted to Hasbro only? I can understand not wanting to promote bootlegs and IP infringing products, but no Takara Tomy?

That is the show Griffin, sadly I haven't seen it so I can't say, but I know that it's season 1. I was rather surprised to see it wasn't posted in this thread yet.

High Q, it's about getting permission from companies to use certain products. A few companies had said no to including there products, but when the production asked Hasbro, they agreed. So I let them hire my Hasbro figures, and I do mean hire, I was compensated for them using them.

From what I've heard, the show is pretty decent and I still find it funny that people wanted to buy my figures when my brother brought them in. From what I was told, they wanted to create a "Nerds" bedroom for that scene.

That's very informative. Learn something new everyday.
